Bridgit Session, Tuesday, April 14th 11:55
In attendance - Jim, Jamie, Tammy, Kevin and Eddie
The group discussed having a "TROUBLESHOOTING" page on the wiki. This was added. We also looked at discussion tab and had questions on how to best use this application.
We decided that each school would have their own page and could add submissions/updates/observsations on events and activities that are occurring with their students.

Bridgit Session - Tuesday, May 19, 2009 11:55 AM
In Attendance - Eddie, Mike, Jamie, Jim, Paula and Monique
Eddie commented on returning HRM's for warranty work to Dorothy MacDonald at end of school year. Jamie had 6 HRM's that after 2 minutes the HRM went back to the watch mode...wondering if the HRM's default to watch mode after a period of time.
Mike still finding it a challenge to have students use monitors (10 minutes to get set up) when PE classes are 30 minutes in length. Some days the class is scheduled back to back with Music which he alos teaches, so it may be feasible to use monitors on those days. Paula suggested having the classroom teacher involved in getting the student set up with the monitors prior to going to PE.
Paula needs assistance in downloading files from monitors to PE manager - Files are not being saved...Also PC Pocket Companion...would like a tutorial session to become more familiar with its use.
Eddie gave the go ahead for Paula and Jamie to plan a session (day together) to look at downloading/saving/PC Pocket Companion, etc.
Monique asked what our status was related to research component. Eddie indicated that group members were still "playing" with the equipment increasing their own comfort levels with using the monitors and the related software.
Eddie reminded group members to add content to their own page based on the headings listed in April 28th meeting.
